    Just wanted to share a little something to that made my day. I was asked to guest post on Sharpologist.com and my article went up today. It was very nice dealing with Mark (Mantic59) and has been a great experience all around. If you want to check out the article its at http://sharpologist.com/2015/03/case...r-shaving.html.

    Great write up!

    I have tried the cold water shave and won't go back to hot water, actually, can't would be a better way to put it. Maybe not for everyone but I think worth a look. My best shave is not to shower first and use cold tap water or tepid tap water, either one gets me the same results. Lather rinse, splash, lather shave.

    You make a pretty convincing case for cold water. I guess it's something else to try in the morning.

    Nice! The Polar Bear Club needs all the good publicity it can get. Honest - we are not crazy.

    (Thank you, @JimmyHAD, for your lasting contribution to my better shaving.)

    I don't use ice water but I do find a room temp shave to be much more comfortable. Haven't used hot water in a long time.
